Saith he was in the Tap Room at Mr Rawlings's
when the Soldiers CameThat before the Soldiers
Came in a Man Came in a blue Coat with an Hanger
And bid every Man Sit still and not a Man to She
Out And Placed two Soldiers within side the Door
And then Walked OutAnd in Less than a Minute
Informant heard the FiringThat he saw the
Flashes of the Powder Thro the Window And they
Appeared to be in the StreetThat he does-
not Remember to have heard any Firing in the
House before he heard that in the Street
That he cannot tell how many times the Tap Room
was Fired intoThat One Butler who sat next
to Informant was Shot and fill the first that Informt.
Saw fallThat then in half a Minute afterwards
Informant Saw Haselden fall
That then Informant Laid himself down under
the Dial till the Firing was all Over which
